With the Vikings no longer in contention for a playoff spot, some players have opted to get some lingering injuries fixed up.
After announcing earlier this week that edge rusher Jonathan Greenard will have surgery on his shoulder, head coach Kevin O’Connell announced that safety Josh Metellus will also have surgery on his shoulder.
Both players have been played on injured reserve.
In the absence of Greenard, edge rusher Dallas Turner will take on a bigger role. In the absence of Metellus, safety Jay Ward will take on a bigger role.
